What about sys_mbind_home_node so the name is better aligned with mbind,
since both operate on vma policy?  The syscall might or might not be
extended to task memory policy, but vma policy is what we're using this
for today.

mbind does untagged_addr(addr), why doesn't this need to do the same?
Seems like tagged addresses could be passed here too.

I think you need an mpol_put(new) here since @new is dup'ed again during
mbind_range > vma_replace_policy.
